Services

Clear engagements for companies that need AI ownership, not more ideas.

Built for established product companies, typically 10-50 people, with capable teams that are underusing AI across product and engineering.

/01Engagement

AI Shipping Sprint

Start here · 2 weeks · $7,500 fixed · Zero equity

Take one scoped AI feature from definition to production inside your existing product.

This is not a strategy deck. In two weeks a real, scoped capability goes live for your users.

Typical scope

  • A focused scoping session to lock one shippable feature and its success criteria
  • Production architecture and integration into your existing product
  • The AI capability itself: assistant, search, RAG, recommendations, or workflow
  • Evaluation, security, latency, and cost controls sized to the feature
  • Deploy to production behind a flag, with rollout and monitoring
  • Clear limits, so larger builds move to an AI Product Delivery engagement

Outcome

One scoped AI feature live in production in two weeks, for a fixed $7,500, with no equity and no lock-in.

/02Engagement

AI Product Delivery

Scoped and priced around the outcome

Take a larger AI feature or automation from definition through production, beyond a single sprint.

The goal is a capability operating inside the company's product or workflows, not an isolated demo.

Typical scope

  • AI feature integration into an existing product
  • Intelligent workflows, agents, RAG, recommendations, personalization, or search
  • Internal automation and operational tools
  • Data and API integration
  • Evaluation, observability, security, privacy, latency, and cost controls
  • Rollout planning, team enablement, and post-launch iteration

Outcome

A real capability shipped into production with the controls and adoption path to keep it useful.

/03Engagement

Fractional AI CTO

Ongoing senior partnership

Provide ongoing senior technical ownership while AI becomes a meaningful part of the product and operating model.

CTO-level judgment with direct implementation capacity, without immediately adding another full-time executive.

Typical scope

  • AI and product-technology roadmap ownership
  • Architecture and build-vs-buy decisions
  • Leadership of high-leverage initiatives
  • Direct contribution to critical implementation
  • Engineering workflow modernization
  • Team coaching, hiring support, and technical quality standards
  • Vendor, model, infrastructure, risk, and cost decisions
  • Executive communication and measurable progress reporting

Outcome

A senior owner for your AI roadmap who also ships: prioritization, architecture, delivery, and a stronger team.

Good fit
  • You already have a product, customers, and a capable team
  • AI is stuck in experiments, copilots, or disconnected prototypes
  • You need ownership across opportunity selection, architecture, and shipping
  • You want a partner who can lead and implement, not wait for tickets
Not a fit
  • Idea-only ventures with no product or realistic budget
  • Generic website or application development requests
  • Staff augmentation that expects Dante to wait for tickets
  • Pure advisory with no path to execution

Start with what's blocking you.

The sprint is a fixed $7,500. Delivery and partnership engagements are scoped and priced around outcomes, not hours. The first conversation is about fit and the next 90 days.
